Dear Elected and Public Health Officials, I am an ON parent who is advocating for my child’s long term health and life. You are responsible for public health policies that keep us safe.

When the Ontario Government failed to create a rapid testing program for schools, volunteer parents stepped up and created their own. Now Doug Ford is taking away the tests, prioritizing them instead for businesses. This is no way to treat the people of #Ontario. theglobeandmail.com/canada/article…

COVID-19: Parents set up rapid screening for schools when government didn't We already know that children have less symptomatic COVID-19 infection than adults, yet schools in Ontario are relying on passive symptom screening to allow children to attend school. 🧵1/

So, Ontario is simultaneously in favour of continuing widespread DART screening of vaccine eligible adults in workplaces, and against this intervention in vaccine ineligible students with the highest COVID prevalence of any age group. We are told the concern is low prevalence?

It took 2.5 months but it’s official: All Ontario Teachers will be provided with superior PPE! Remember those who fought for this, even when several unions and schools boards fought back : Kashif Pirzada, MD Barry Hunt @masks4allCanada Vitacore #BetterMasksOct14 -> Reality!

So let me get this straight: The Canadian women's hockey team wore N95 masks while easily beating Russia 6-1 at the Olympics...but some people are so inconvenienced by having to wear a mask that they're holding the city of Ottawa under siege & claiming it's all about "freedom?"

I was just asked to be on The National to discuss Roe and abortion...and then I found out it would be a panel with a "pro-life/anti-abortion" voice. I am livid and sent this reply. I couldn't care less if this means I will not be asked back to the CBC. It needed to be said.

Ontario’s current mental health laws create barriers for front-line physicians to effectively treat patients experiencing psychosis. #onpoli #mentalhealth healthydebate.ca/2022/07/topic/…

Ontario college and university funding by source vs. the other nine provinces, 2021-22. You'd think we were in a different country.

Challenges facing graduate students and early career researchers are real. My partner finished his doctorate sleeping on his supervisor’s floor because he could not afford rent. I used my own personal funds to pay for my 1918 flu expedition. Time to invest in research.
